The Hunter

well just got my biggest elk was a epic hunt

picked out my biggie from bunch !


sniper crawled through pack sweaty business :p

to get to thebiggie who went for a nap :D



got within ten feet and boom ! 1093lbs of dead elk


 
How do i know how many points its worth as Doc is asking for a 6 pointer now.

Count the points (ends) on the antlers.

There are 8 points on that one, same on the other side, making this a 16pt deer.




What do the bars at the top of the huntermate mean?

Ambient sound (wind in trees mainly) shows roughly how much noise you have covering your movement. It also shows volume of animal calls.

It does not register your own sound.
 
Really struggling today, just feels like all i doing is following stuff around. Can't get anywhere near anything and the only thing i've seen all day was hiding behind a rock so i didnt see him until it was too late.
 
spent hrs following some big elk but everytime i got within distance one younger one would spook them so easily :mad: they would run another 5oo yards.in end time ran out and had to go back to lodge with no elk :(


been trying to get range turkey top spot on leader board as its not that far.

currently number 6 hopefully get it :p
 
Yeah i had the same problem with a big elk yesterday, ran out of time too :(.

Was going to stop playing but shot myself a Mule Deer at the end of the last sessions so got the urge to go shooting again :D.

It is made a little harder by having to use a no scoped rifle to shoot the elk.
 
Boy do i hate this game:mad:...but i cant resist having another go for some reason:confused:. Gatfit is my user name should anyone like to add me as a friend;)

Can be very frustrating , but, rewarding at the same time.

Anyone know the time frame for getting on the big island?

I assume there will be vehicles available when that happens or a lot more spawn points as the island is huge.
 
Will add player names. Mine is HummuH.

I pretty much lost this weekend to the game again. Not a fan of having to shoot Elk with a bust non-scoped gun so will get on to them later!

There's lots more deer around since the update though. I saw a herd of about 10 at the first tower to the south at about 7am. Seen loads since although all animals spook much easier now.

The Turkey's behaviour has changed most of all though. Much harder to just prone-move through 20 of them and chooose the biggest now!
 
well update tomorrow yay !

fixing the 30.06 inaccuracy . should make getting them elk a bit easier now!


Today's News
6 million minutes since March 1st!

Tuesday, 14th April 2009

After a surge of activity over the holiday weekend, players have now clocked-up over 6 million minutes of expedition time since March 1st!

That's over 11 years of hunting in less than 6 weeks.

This is the total duration of actual expeditions, and DOESN'T include all of the time spent in the social space, discussing missions with NPCs, messaging, uploading and viewing gallery images, checking the new stats pages, and all the rest!

Latest Fixes
Some issues were spotted over the weekend with the new 30-06 rifle, and a patch is in test for that now. Expect a small new download tomorrow, 15 April.

Also, some people are experiencing graphical issues with the new version, and an update of your graphics drivers is highly recommended to all players to fix this.

Happy Hunting
theHunter Team
